MATERIAL. Digital image of a syntype ( Venugopal et Thomas, 2019: 69, Fig. 1G ).

Additional material. 3♂♂, 2♀♀ ( SIEE), N Thailand, Mae Hong Son Province, env. Pai, 19°22´N / 98°30´29´´E or 19°21´48´´/ 98°27´57´´E, or 19°21´41´´/ 98°27´46´´E, h~ 600 m, 27.IV–9.V.2013 (I. Melnik & O. Mosalov), including ♂ ♀ taken at light. Genitalia examined in three males and one female.

REDESCRIPTION. Body. BL 14–19 mm. Body pattern as in Figs 90–92 : head yellow except narrow to missing black V-shaped patch on vertex; dorsal yellow pattern otherwise consisting of narrow paramedian spots on pronotum, and elytral markings, such as small to missing humeral spot, mostly narrow median fascia isolated from lateral margin, ridges apically, and sometimes also spot in outer angles.

Head and pronotum totally impunctate and glabrous (except for imperceptible yet rather dense microscopic ciliae).

Pronotum quadrate, somewhat subcordate, barely longer than wide, PW/PL 0.92–1.0 (0.97), narrow, PW/HW 0.96– 1.01 (0.98), broadest a third from apex, PLw/PW 0.31–0.38 (0.34); sides barely to distinctly sinuate a fifth from base and rounded in front. Base slightly wider than apex, PB/PA 1.06– 1.12 (1.08), with basal and apical margins gently convex or gently concave, respecrively, the former with subtle or no sinuation towards basal angles; these very slightly acute to right and rather sharp. Lateral bead and groove very fine and mostly obliterate in basal fourth.

Elytra rather short, EL/EW 1.44–1.53 (1.48), EW/EL 1.98– 2.08 (2.04), similar in shape and proportions in both sexes.

Sternite VII mostly quadrisetose in male.

GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION. Major part of the species range, except for northern and central Vietnam.

HABITATS AND HABITS. No data except that adults flight to light at night.
